VSCode (USER) ide

What I have figured out so far

If you don’t have minor version .15 of python, VSCode doesn’t finish the install of the ide plugin.

If you “don’t” restore the ide prefs, it will work just fine.

{
    "git.enabled": false,
    "window.autoDetectHighContrast": false,
    "files.trimTrailingWhitespace": true,
    "files.autoSave": "afterDelay",
    "workbench.colorTheme": "Tomorrow Night Blue",
    "editor.tabSize": 4,
    "editor.accessibilitySupport": "off",
    "editor.detectIndentation": false,
    "editor.autoClosingBrackets": false,
    "editor.formatOnPaste": true,
    "editor.formatOnType": true,
    "editor.formatOnSave": true,
    "workbench.startupEditor": "none",
    "C_Cpp.autocomplete": "Default",
    "C_Cpp.clang_format_fallbackStyle": "{ BasedOnStyle: LLVM, UseTab: Never, IndentWidth: 4, ColumnLimit: 0 }",
    "C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngine": "Default",
    "C_Cpp.intelliSenseEngineFallback": "Disabled"
}

If I install the following prefs, it will instantly break platformio plugin.
